Chapter 1059: Chapter 1041: Good Boy, Solar Energy Chapter 1059: Chapter 1041: Good Boy, Solar Energy Ren Li unapologetically took the cup and held it to her mouth.
After a long tirade, she was already parched.
The water was just the right temperature, and she gulped down the contents of the cup in one go.
Then she closed her eyes and let out a gentle sigh.
Constantly cursing at people really could wear a person out.
Even if asked to curse someone out now, she couldn’t do it.
She just wanted to rest, to sit there saying nothing, doing nothing, and to the extent that she didn’t even want to move a facial muscle.
...
Feeling better?
Tang Zhinian fawningly massaged Ren Li’s shoulders and pinched her arm.
Ren Li eyed him suspiciously.
What was up with him?
Could he truly have lost his mind?
His daughter was still missing, and here he was, currying favor, grinning like an idiot.
Could it be—Ren Li’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat—could it be that he’d become foolish from the shock?
“Zhinian, don’t scare me.”
At this, Ren Li truly began to cry.
He couldn’t become foolish; if he did, what would become of them, a mother and child left alone?
“What’s wrong with me?”
Tang Zhinian was utterly perplexed.
He was perfectly fine; in fact, he couldn’t be better.
“This is really turning into an idiot,” Ren Li stood up, ready to call for a doctor to check Tang Zhinian’s head thoroughly.
“I’m not foolish.”
Did Tang Zhinian look like a fool?
No, he was as normal as could be, wasn’t he?
“But if you’re not foolish, why are you smiling?”
Ren Li pounded the table with her hand, tears falling even more fiercely..
“Why can’t I smile?”
Tang Zhinian touched the corner of his mouth.
Could it be that smiling was also a crime?
“You’re still smiling,” Ren Li pinched the flesh on Tang Zhinian’s waist with force.
Tang Zhinian grimaced in pain.
He just didn’t understand why he couldn’t smile.
“Your daughter and son-in-law haven’t sent any news yet, and you’re still smiling?
What the hell is there to smile about!”
Tang Zhinian’s face soured at that.
What could he say?
We don’t even know how much battery Yuxin’s phone has left.
If you keep calling her, draining her phone battery, how do you expect her to contact others, to save herself?”
Tang Zhinian quickly nodded, sweat beading on his forehead.
Indeed, that was the case.
He had planned to call his daughter again in a bit, to let her explain her current situation so he could figure out how to rescue her.
Luckily, Ren Li had reminded him.
If he really kept on talking to his daughter over the phone, what if he ended up draining her phone’s battery completely?
Wouldn’t that put her in danger?
No wonder Ren Li had thrown the phone at him earlier without even making a call.
It wasn’t for any other reason; she was simply trying to save Yuxin’s phone battery.
Tang Zhinian quickly took out his phone and sent a message this time.
Save on electricity, conserve your phone battery.
Turn it off when not in use, and turn it on occasionally to send us a text.
Tang Yuxin’s phone ‘dinged’ as it received the message.
She hurriedly turned on her phone and read the message from Tang Zhinian.
Then, she handed her phone to Gu Ning to show him the message.
“What should we do?”
She asked Gu Ning.
She had thought of this herself just a moment ago.
But while she had managed to think of everything else, she hadn’t considered getting a few large charging devices.
If their phones ran out of battery, it would cut off all their contact with the outside world.
A dead phone was no different than no phone at all, good for nothing but hitting people with.
“Don’t worry,” Gu Ning wasn’t worried about this at all, “The solar panels we installed at home still generate some power.
The solar energy technology may not be advanced here yet, but it’s enough to charge your phone.”
Tang Yuxin looked up at the ceiling.
Could she admit that Gu Ning, who’d never foreseen the future, had thought further ahead than she had, even though she’d lived a whole lifetime before?
Somehow she always felt like she had the upper hand, but Gu Ning seemed to have all the cheats.
Anything they needed, he found a way to get it.
Solar energy, my goodness, solar energy.
It’s just...
Her face fell again.
When would the sun come out?
Yes, when would it?
It had been raining for two days, and with rain, there was no sun.
Without the sun, there was no power.
She moved closer to look at Gu Ning’s notebook.
